CSV to flowchart — turn structured data into audit-ready process maps
Convert any CSV file into an audit-ready process flowchart. Deterministic generation, approval workflow, version control, and immutable audit trail — built for compliance, ERP, and operations teams.
How it works
Prepare a CSV with one row per process step
Columns: step name, owner / swimlane, predecessor step ID, and approval gate. CSV is a lowest-common-denominator export from Excel, Google Sheets, Notion, Airtable, ERP exports, and BI tools.
Upload the CSV to QueryChart
QueryChart parses the CSV deterministically — every row becomes a step, every owner becomes a swimlane. No CLI flags, no DSL syntax, no transformation script.
Map ambiguous columns interactively
If column headers don't match QueryChart's expected schema, an interactive mapper resolves them in one click. The mapping is saved per source.
Approve and publish
Route the generated process map through the approval workflow. Once approved, the version is checkpointed and the URL becomes shareable as audit evidence.
Frequently asked questions
What CSV format does QueryChart expect?
One row per process step. Required columns: step name, owner (or swimlane), predecessor step. Optional: approval gate, control reference, evidence URL, system of record. Header row is auto-detected.
Can I import a CSV exported from an ERP or BI tool?
Yes. CSV exports from SAP, Oracle Fusion, NetSuite, Workday, ServiceNow, Power BI, Tableau, and Looker all work. If the column structure differs, the interactive mapper resolves it in one click.
How is QueryChart different from Visio Data Visualizer?
QueryChart is the web-native, license-free alternative — no Visio Plan 2, no Microsoft 365 dependency, first-class macOS support. CSV-native ingestion (Visio Data Visualizer is Excel-only).
Is the conversion deterministic?
Yes. The same CSV always produces the same process map — no AI inference, no hallucinated steps.
